Great books, very intense. This is the third in the series. You must read them in order, no kidding.
NOT happily ever after stories. The suprises in this book made me want to rip it to pieces! :0
I couldn't stop reading it.

I really like this series and tend to read them very quickly. I liked this one, but it felt like the third book in the series, which it is! I feel that there is something about the third book in a series that ties up some lose ends, but isn't as captivating as the previous or future are or will be.
